About the author Gary Leon Zimmer’s work is eclectic! The reader will journey from all that is mysterious in Damn, Ghost! to the magic of multiple romances in Casino Mastabatorium. Then there is The House in the Alley, a story that gives readers an insight into Zimmer’s gritty post adolescent years selling newspapers on downtown streets and setting pins in bowling lanes for ten cents a line for three hours on school nights. Jail beckoned! But sports won! Baseball and basketball! And work for clothes and work for school. He graduated from Yakima High School one year after internationally known short-story writer Ray Carver. Carver wrote Dummy! Zimmer wrote The Ad Said… Carver is dead! Zimmer is still writing…try a couple of his short stories or read his poetic tribute to Carver… I am not the famous one… He’ll reach you! As said, eclectic!
